SECTION 1 (continued)

5. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (continued)

5.1 Board and Management (continued)

5.1.1 Role of the Board (continued)

• Identifying the principal risks faced by Inventis and ensuring that appropriate control and monitoring systems are in place to manage the impact of these risks;

• Ensuring that Inventis’ financial and other reporting mechanisms result in adequate, accurate and timely information being provided to the Board;

• Ensuring that investors and the market are fully informed of all material developments, in a timely manner;

• Appointing, and where appropriate, removing the Chairman and the Managing Director, approving other key executive appointments and dismissals of those reporting to the Managing Director as well as planning for executive succession;

• Overseeing and evaluating the performance of the Chairman and the Managing Director and other senior executives in the context of Inventis’ strategies and objectives;

• Approving budgets and business plans and monitoring the progress of major capital expenditures, capital management as well as acquisitions and divestures;

• Ensuring compliance with all relevant laws, government regulators and accounting standards; and

• Ensuring that the business of Inventis and its subsidiaries is conducted openly and ethically.

5.1.2 Board’s Delegation of Authority

The Board has delegated the day to day functions of the business to be performed by the senior executives under the guidance of the Executive Chairman (Part-time).

The Board ensures that it receives monthly reports from each senior executive and updates from the Executive Chairman (Part-time) with regard to the delegated authority, as and when requested by the Directors.

5.1.3 Evaluation of performance of the Senior Executives

At the appointment stage, each senior executive is provided with their job description along with the appointment letter and key performance indicators are set for measuring their performance in the probation period as well for the year ahead.

The Remuneration and Nomination Committee has set up the performance of the Managing Directors and the Chief Financial Officer according to the business plans of their respective divisions and the achievement of the targets stated therein.

The respective Managing Directors and the Chief Financial Officer consult with the senior executives directly reporting to them and set the Key performance indicators (KPIs) for each of them.

In the financial year ended 30 June 2013, due to restructuring of the businesses, no performance reviews were conducted.

5.1.4 Board and its performance

(a) Composition of the Board and Board Processes

During the period and until the date of reporting, the Board comprised of an Executive Chairman (Part-time) and two non-executive directors.

Each director has the right to access all relevant company information and to the Company’s executives and, subject to prior consultation with the Executive Chairman and after obtaining the approvals of the fee payable for the advice, may seek independent professional advice from a suitably qualified adviser

(a) Composition of the Board and Board Processes (continued)

at the Company’s expense. A copy of the advice received by the Director is made available to all other members of the Board.

In case of conferring in the presence of the Executive Chairman, Mr Peter Bobbin has been appointed as a Lead director to ensure that in such discussions, the executive director does not influence the non-executive / Independent directors.

At the time of appointment of a director or a senior executive, such director or senior executive discloses all interests to the Board. The Board puts in place a plan for management in case of any conflicts of interests. All the directors and senior executives are then required to inform any change in their interests at every Board Meeting. This process assists the Board to determine the independence of a director. The Company has put in place processes to ensure timely disclosure to the market of any changes in a director’s interest.

(b) The Chairperson

On 26 November 2008, the Board decided to change the structure of the Board to ensure the independence of the Board is maintained.

It was decided that for the time being the minimum number of directors comprise the Board.

The Independent non-executive directors appointed the then Managing Director Mr Tony Noun as the Chairperson. In fact Mr Noun is an Executive Chairman. The principle recommendations 2.2 and 2.3 are not adopted by the Company at this stage. The reason being Mr Tony Noun has been the Managing Director and has knowledge with regard to operations of each division of the Group and hence is competent to drive the Company into the right direction. Under the leadership of the Executive Chairman, each Division has a senior executive who heads that Division and reports to the Executive Chairman.

In addition, Mr Peter Bobbin has been appointed as a lead director to ensure the independence of the Board is maintained.

5.1.5 Evaluation of the Performance of the Board

Due to change in the composition of the Board, the Board will not be evaluating the performance of the Board.

5.2 Audit and Risk Management Committee

Since 26 November 2008, the Board has revoked the powers of its sub-committees and resolved that the Board as a whole will exercise the powers of Audit and Risk Management Committee.

The role of the Audit and Risk Management Committee is to provide advice and assistance to the Board to allow it to:

• Fulfil its audit, accounting and reporting obligations;

• Review the annual, half-year and other financial information distributed externally. This includes approving new accounting policies to ensure compliance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASB’s), and assessing whether the financial information is adequate for shareholder needs;

• Assess corporate risk assessment processes;

• Assess whether non-audit services provided by the external auditor are consistent with maintaining the external auditor’s independence. Each reporting period the external auditor provides an independence declaration in relation to the audit or review;

SECTION 1 (continued)

5. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (continued)

5.2 Audit and Risk Management Committee (continued)

• Provide advice to the Board in respect of whether the provision of the non-audit services by the external auditor is compatible with the general standard of independence of auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001;

• Assess the adequacy of the internal control framework and the Company’s code of ethical standards;

• Organise, review and report on any special reviews or investigations deemed necessary by the Board;

• Assess potential fraud situations and ensure prompt and appropriate rectification of any deficiencies or breakdowns identified in systems;

• Review the performance of the external auditors on an annual basis.

5.2.1 Oversight of the Risk Management System

The Board oversees the establishment, implementation, and annual review of the Company’s Risk Management System. Management has established and implemented a Risk Management System for assessing, monitoring, and managing operational, financial reporting, and compliance risks for the Group. The Executive Chairman (Part-Time) and the Chief Financial Officer have declared, in writing to the Board, that the financial reporting risk management and associated compliance and controls have been assessed and found to be operating efficiently and effectively. The operational and other risk management compliance and controls have also been assessed and found to be operating efficiently and effectively. All risk assessments covered the whole financial year and the period up to the signing of the annual financial report for all material operations in the Group, and material associates and joint ventures.

5.2.2 Risk Profile

The Audit and Risk Management Committee reports quarterly on the status of risks through integrated risk management programmes aimed at ensuring risks are identified, assessed, and appropriately managed. Each business operational unit is responsible and accountable for implementing and managing the standards required by the programmes.

Major risks arise from such matters as actions by competitors, government policy changes, the impact of exchange rate movements on the price of raw materials and sales, difficulties in sourcing raw materials, environment, occupational health and safety, property, financial reporting, and the purchase, development and use of information systems.

The Audit and Risk Management Committee has direct access to any employee, the external auditors or any other independent experts and advisers as it considers appropriate in order to ensure that its responsibilities can be carried out effectively.

5.2.3 Risk Management, Compliance and Control

The Group strives to ensure that its products are of the highest standard. Towards this aim it has undertaken a program to achieve AS/NZS ISO 9001:2008 accreditation for each of its business segments.

The Board is responsible for the overall internal control framework, but recognises that no cost-effective internal control system will preclude all errors and irregularities.

The Board’s policy on internal control is comprehensive and comprises the Company’s internal compliance and control systems, including:

Operating unit controls – Operating units confirm compliance with financial controls and procedures including information systems controls detailed in procedures manuals;

Functional speciality reporting – Key areas subject to regular reporting to the Board include Treasury Operations, Environmental, Legal and financial matters; and

5.3 Remuneration and Nomination Committee

On 26 November 2008, the Board revoked the powers of its sub-committees and resolved that the Board as a whole will exercise the powers of Remuneration and Nomination Committee.

The role of the Remuneration and Nominations Committee is to provide recommendations to the Board on matters including:

• Retention strategies for executives and senior management;

5.3.1 Principles used to determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration

The remuneration policy of the Group has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholders and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and in many cases offering incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Group’s financial results.

SECTION 1 (continued)

5. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (continued)

5.3 Remuneration and Nomination Committee (continued)

5.3.1 Principles used to determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration (continued)

The Board believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives, and shareholders.

The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and senior executives of the Group is as follows:

5.3.2 Executive Directors and Senior Executives

The remuneration policy, setting terms and conditions for the Executive Directors and other senior executives, was developed by the Remuneration and Nominations Committee and approved by the Board. All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation and performance incentives.

The Remuneration Committee reviews executive packages annually by reference to the Group’s performance, executive performance, and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries. Executives are offered a competitive base salary that comprises the fixed component of remuneration and rewards. Reference to external remuneration reports provides analysis to ensure base salary is set to reflect the market for a comparable role.

The performance of executives is measured against criteria agreed annually with each executive and is based predominantly on the forecast growth of the Group’s profits and shareholders’ value. All bonuses and incentives must be linked to predetermined performance criteria. The Board may, however, exercise at its discretion in relation to approving incentives and bonuses and can recommend changes to the Committee’s recommendations. Any changes must be justified by reference to measurable performance criteria. The policy is designed to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth.

In some parts of the Group commissions are paid. The commission is based upon individual and team pre-determined targets set by the Managing Director of the company concerned and are payable quarterly. Using a predetermined target ensures variable reward is only available when value has been created for Shareholders and when it is consistent with the business plan. The incentive pool is leveraged for performance above the threshold to provide an incentive for executives to out-perform.

5.3.3 Non - Executive Directors

The Board policy is to remunerate Non-executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment, and responsibilities. The Executive Directors’ determine remuneration of the Non-executive Directors and review it annually, based on market practice, duties, and accountability. Independent external advice is sought where required. Fees for Non-executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Group.

5.3.4 Retirement Allowances

No retirement allowances exist for Directors. The executives and executive directors employed on a full time basis receive a superannuation guarantee contribution as required by the Federal Government, which is currently 9.25%, but do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals have however chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation.

The Remuneration Report is set out under the following main headings:

B. Details of remuneration

D. Additional disclosures

A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The remuneration policy of the Group has been designed to align Director and executive objectives with shareholders and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering incentive based on key performance areas affecting the Group’s financial results. The Board believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.

Directors’ fees

All remuneration paid to Directors is valued at the cost to the Group and expensed.

Executive pay

The executive pay and reward framework has three components:

� Base pay and benefits

� Short-term performance incentives

� Other remuneration such as superannuation.

The combination of these comprises the executive’s total remuneration. The Group approved its long-term equity linked performance incentives specifically for executives with effect from 1 July 2008.

Base pay and benefits

Base pay is structured as a total employment cost package which may be delivered as a combination of cash and prescribed non-financial benefits at the executive’s discretion. It includes Super Guarantee Charge at the rate prescribed by the Government from time to time.

Executives are offered a competitive base pay that comprises the fixed component of pay and rewards. When required, external remuneration consultants provide analysis and advice to ensure base pay is set to reflect the market for a comparable role. Base pay for senior executives is reviewed annually to ensure the executive’s pay is competitive with the market. An executive’s pay is also reviewed on promotion.

There are no guaranteed base pay increases included in any senior executives’ contracts.

Benefits

Executives receive benefits including car allowances.

Short-term performance incentives (STI)

If the Group achieves a predetermined profit target set by the Board, a short-term incentive (STI) pool is available to executives during the annual review. Cash incentives (bonuses) are payable on 30 September each year. Using a profit target ensures variable reward is only available when value has been created for shareholders and when profit is consistent with the business plan. The incentive pool is leveraged for performance above the threshold to provide an incentive for executives to out-perform.

The Group has a bonus incentive scheme for individual management employees. This is broadly based on the achievement of the Group profit objectives and the achievements of the individual KPIs.

C. Service agreements

It is the Group’s policy that service contracts for key management personnel are unlimited in term but capable of termination on notice by either party. The Board has determined a notice period of three months for the Executive Chairman, the Chief Financial Officer and the Divisional Managing Directors.

The key management personnel are also entitled to receive on termination of employment their statutory entitlements of accrued annual and long service leave, together with any superannuation benefits.

The service contracts outline the components of compensation paid to the key management personnel but do not prescribe how compensation levels are modified year to year. Compensation levels are reviewed each year to take into account cost-of-living changes, any change in the scope of the role performed by the senior executive and any changes required to meet the principles of the compensation policy.

Tony Noun is the Executive Chairman of the Group and receives remuneration in accordance with a contract of employment dated 1 January 2007, as amended from time to time.

Non-Executive Directors

Total compensation for all Non-Executive Directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 2004 AGM, is not to exceed $250,000 per annum and is set based on advice from external advisors with reference to fees paid to other Non-Executive Directors of comparable companies. Directors’ base fees are presently set at $48,000 per annum, with the Non-Executive Chairperson set at $98,000 per annum. As the current Chairperson is an Executive Director he is not being paid this additional fee.

In the event any non-executive director is required to do an executive role for a short period of time, a separate remuneration amount for the executive role is paid in addition to their director’s remuneration.

Options

The Group has established an Employee Performance Option Plan (EPOP) to assist in the attraction, retention, and motivation of employees, senior executives and Executive Directors of the Group. The EPOP is not available to the Non-Executive Directors.

The EPOP is administered by the Board which may determine:

� Which executives and employees are eligible to participate;

� The criteria relevant to the selection of eligible executives and employees; and

� The ineligibility of an executive or employee to participate in the EPOP if in the Board’s opinion participation by that executive or employee would constitute a breach of the rules of EPOP, or of the Company’s Constitution, or of the ASX Listing Rules, or of any law of any jurisdictions.

Continuous Disclosure Checklist – There is a continuous disclosure checklist process implemented in the Quality System of the Company under the Corporate Governance Procedure. This checklist is comprehensive and enables the executives to check whether any event or happening of any event is to be disclosed to the market or not at any particular moment of time.

In summary, the Continuous Disclosure Policy operates as follows:

Cash flows from operations

In the financial year net cash outflows of the Group from operating activities were ($1,813,436) (2012: ($857,385)).

Net cash inflows from investing activities during the financial year were $609,000 (2012:$802,711) of which $26,000 was used (2012: $56,792) for purchase of plant and equipment.

In the financial year there was a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of ($443,851) (2012: increase of $385,533).

4. PRINCIPAL BUSINESSES

A commentary on the two operating divisions is set out below:

Technology Division: The Technology Division’s revenue for the year was $8.0m.This is a 17% improvement over the same period last year.

EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) for the year was a profit of $0.8m as compared to $0.05m for the same period last year. This turnaround in profitability is attributed to higher revenue, reduced costs as well as the benefits of the restructure which occurred during the last financial year.

The Technology Division’s restructuring and streamlining program is almost complete. This will strengthen its position and ongoing performance.

Government expenditure in Australia has reduced and there is a general tightening of the market as well as a greater focus on imported product. To address this contraction and provide a competitive edge, we have enhanced our supply chain and formed partnerships with quality local and overseas suppliers to enter new markets.

It is also pleasing to note that our proprietary product offering is gaining greater acceptance in both Australian and overseas markets, particularly for SafeZone, as a low cost railway solution, and Emergency Alert Systems, for schools, industry, defence and other applications.

Furniture Division: The Furniture Division revenue for the year ended 30 June 2013 was $12.4m as compared to $14.7m for the previous financial year.

EBITDA is a loss of $0.6m as compared to a loss of $0.4m in the previous financial year. This result is attributable to a loss of AUD $1.1m for the New Zealand component of the Furniture Division, which was also amplified by the adverse impact of the AUD / NZD exchange rate.

To address the poor performance of our New Zealand operations, the Board has implemented a substantial number of changes including but not limited to, a complete management restructure for both Australia and New Zealand, further streamlining of the business, enhancing procurement and working to improve service, support and sales. Additionally, the Board is exploring all other options to ensure the New Zealand Division’s viability and long term success.

Overall, our Gregory Commercial Furniture Division is improving performance by continuing with its procurement strategy, product rationalisation and cost control measures, which have and will continue to improve bottom line results. This underlying growth and strengthening of the bottom line is underpinned by our ergonomic product strengths and capitalising on our major new European partnerships with the likes of Sedus to consolidate and strengthen our market position for a better and brighter future.

Discontinued Operation - Aviation Division (Les Bleus Group): On 3 July 2012, the Receivers of the Les Bleus Group of Companies, a wholly owned group, filed a notice at the New Zealand Companies House informing of the end of their Receivership. Responsibility for the three companies which had been in receivership and liquidation since 2008 was transferred to the Liquidators while the responsibility for the rest of the companies was returned to the Directors who authorised deregistration of these companies. These companies were deregistered, as a result the net impact is a profit on de-recognition of Les Bleus Group, recorded under the discontinued operations portions of the accompanying financial statements and notes.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

31 | P a g e

NOTE 1 REPORTING ENTITY

Inventis Limited (the “Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia and incorporated in Australia. The current address of the Company’s registered office is Unit 4, 199 Parramatta Road Auburn NSW 2144. The Financial Statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2013 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group” and individually as “Group entities”). The Group is a “for profit” entity and a manufacturer of products and services including ergonomic office furniture, electronic control systems and ruggedised computing products (see Note 6 – Segment Reporting).

On 28 April 2006, the Company acquired 100% of the issued share capital of Inventis Technology Pty Limited (formerly known as PNE Electronics Pty Limited, hereinafter referred to as ‘Inventis Technology’) and its wholly owned subsidiaries and consideration was paid by way of exchange of shares in the Company, in exchange for all of PNE shares.

Under Australian Accounting Standards, this transaction was accounted for as a business combination. In applying the requirements of AASB 3 “Business Combinations” to the Group:

� Inventis Limited is the legal parent entity of the Group and presents consolidated financial information; and

� Inventis Technology, which is neither the legal parent nor legal acquirer, is deemed to be the accounting parent of the Group.

The consolidated financial information incorporates the assets and liabilities of all entities deemed to be acquired by Inventis Technology, including the Company, and the results of these entities for the period from which those entities are accounted for as being acquired by Inventis Technology.

Issued capital

Issued capital is shown on the basis that the acquisition of Inventis Technology at 28 April 2006 by the Company was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Issued share capital comprises of the share capital of Inventis Technology prior to the reverse acquisition, the share capital deemed to be issued as a result of the acquisition, and the share capital issued by the Company to outside shareholders after the date of the acquisition, net of costs relating to capital raising activities.

The actual number of shares on issue as disclosed in Note 23 is that of the Company.

NOTE 2 BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of compliance

The Financial Report has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act, 2001. The Financial Statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 30 September 2013.

(b) Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following:

� Land and buildings are measured at fair value

The methods used to measure fair values are discussed further in Note 4.

(c) Functional and presentation currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency and the functional currency of the majority of the Group.

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Class Order 98/100 dated 10 July 1998 and in accordance with that Class Order, all financial information presented in Australian dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated.

(d) Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AASBs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

32 | P a g e

NOTE 2 BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

(d) Use of estimates and judgements (continued)

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

In particular, significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are:

� Note 16(ii) and (iii) – Tax assets and liabilities

� Note 18 – Intangible assets

(e) Going concern

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis of accounting, which assumes, the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

For the year ended 30 June 2013, the Group recorded a loss of $2.1m from continuing operations, which included an impairment expense of $0.5m in deferred tax assets. The Group also incurred net cash outflows from operating activities of $1.8m for the year ended 30 June 2013. As at 30 June 2013, the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1.1m.

In relation to the Directors’ assessment of the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, and therefore, the basis of preparation of this financial report, the directors have considered the following:

• The Directors have reviewed the cash flow forecasts for the Group and believe that there will be sufficient cash inflows and facilities available to enable the Group to fund its operations for at least 12 months from the date these financial statements have been approved;

• Management have forecast to generate a profit and positive cash flows from continuing operations for the year ended 30 June 2014 and for the year ended 30 June 2015 and the Directors believe this will be the case;

• Management has restructured the Group’s businesses, which has lowered its cost base for FY 2014 and future years. Included in 2013 expenses are costs associated with the restructure;

• The Group has a strong pipeline of sales;

• The Directors are confident of raising sufficient new financing to enable the Group to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable through either a Capital Raising or through other financial arrangements. The Group intends undertaking a Capital Raising by means of a convertible preference shares issue (CPS Issue) to existing shareholders. This CPS issue is expected to raise approximately $2.8m. Further, debtor finance facilities available to the Group remains at AUD 4.0m and NZD 1.0m, which is available subject to achieving sales. The facility is drawn to $1.56m at the date of this report, and is in compliance with the facility terms. In addition, a new loan facility from related parties has been executed subsequent to the year.

The Directors have concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the financial report on a going concern basis, as they are confident the Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable through positive cash flows from continuing operations and new equity funds from the CPS Issue. Accordingly, no adjustments have been made to the financial statements relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Except as described below, the accounting policies set out have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities.

(a) Basis of consolidation

i. Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Inventis Limited (“Company” or “Parent Entity”) as at 30 June 2013 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Inventis Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these Financial Statements as the Group or the Consolidated Entity.

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that currently are exercisable are taken into account.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

The accounting policies of subsidiaries are changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group.

ii. Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

iii. Business combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that currently are exercisable.

Acquisitions on or after 1 July 2009

For acquisitions on or after 1 July 2009, the Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as:

� The fair value of the consideration transferred; plus

� The recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquiree; less

� The net recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or loss.

Acquisitions between 1 July 2004 and 1 July 2009

For acquisitions between 1 July 2004 and 1 July 2009, goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Group’s interest in the recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. When the excess was negative, a bargain purchase gain was recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurred in connection with business combinations were capitalised as part of the cost of the acquisition.

(b) Les Bleus –basis of accounting

On 3 July 2012, the Receivers of the Les Bleus Group of Companies, a wholly owned group, which had been in receivership since 2008, filed a notice at the New Zealand Companies House informing the end of their Receivership. Responsibility for the three companies which were in receivership and liquidation was transferred to the Liquidators while responsibility for the rest of the companies was returned to the Directors.

These companies were deregistered during the year ended 30 June 2013. As a result, their carrying values have been de-recognised from the statement of financial position and recognised through profit from discontinued operations for the year ended 30 June 2013. For the comparative period, all assets and liabilities relating to those companies were classified as current and all assets were written down to their estimated realisable values, a basis other than the going concern basis.

NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(c) Foreign currency

i. Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.

ii. Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve (translation reserve) in equity. When a foreign operation is disposed of such control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary item are considered to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation and are recognised in other comprehensive income, and are presented within equity in the translation reserve in equity.

(d) Financial instruments

i. Non-derivative financial instruments

The Group initially recognises trade and other receivables at the date that they are originated. All other financial assets are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provision of the instrument.

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognised as a separate asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the Statement of Financial Position when, and only when, the Group has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Group has the following non-derivative financial assets: loans and receivables and available-for-sale financial assets.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Loans and receivables comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, and other financial assets. Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits. Accounting for finance income and expense is discussed in Note 3(o).

NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(d) Financial instruments (continued)

ii. Non-derivative financial liabilities

All other financial liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.

The Group classifies non-derivative financial liabilities into the other financial liabilities category. Such financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Other financial liabilities comprise interest bearing liabilities and trade and other payables.

Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows.

iii. Share capital

Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

Dividends

Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the financial year but not distributed at reporting date.

(e) Property, plant and equipment

i. Recognition and measurement

Up until the comparative reporting date, land and buildings were recognised at fair value, based on periodic valuations by external independent valuers, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. Any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation was eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount was restated to the revalued amount of the asset. All other property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognised through profit or loss. When revalued assets are sold, the amounts included in the revaluation reserve are transferred to retained earnings.

Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment.

ii. Revaluation of property

Increases in the carrying amounts arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited, net of tax, to the revaluation reserve in equity. To the extent that the increase reverses a decrease previously recognised in profit or loss, the increase is first recognised in the profit or loss. Decreases that reverse previous increases of the same asset are first charged against revaluation reserve directly in equity to the extent of the remaining reserve attributable to the asset; all other decreases are charged to profit or loss.

iii. Subsequent costs

The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group, and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

(e) Property, plant and equipment (continued)

iv. Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value.

Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis, for assets acquired after 2008 and diminishing value prior to 2008, over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Land is not depreciated.

Depreciation Rates calculated under the straight line method (unless otherwise stated) for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

Leasehold improvements 2.5%

Plant and equipment 9% -50%

Furniture and fittings 11.25% -40%

Motor vehicles 22.5%

Leased plant and equipment 20% -33%

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.

(f) Intangible assets

i. Goodwill

Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. For the measurement of goodwill at initial recognition, see Note 3(a)(ii).

Subsequent measurement

Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

ii. Research and development

Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditure is capitalised only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Group intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalised includes the cost of materials, direct labour and overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, and capitalised borrowing costs (see note 3(e)(i)). Other development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Capitalised development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

iii. Intellectual property, customer relationships, patents and trademarks

Intellectual property, customer relationships and brands have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which vary from 2 to 6 years.

The Group, on the acquisition of Opentec Solutions Pty Limited, Impart Special Products Pty Limited, Damba Furniture Pty Limited and the restructure of Gregory Commercial Furniture Pty Limited, undertook purchase price allocations and valuation of each company’s intangible assets at the date of acquisition or restructure. As a result the Group has determined various amortisation lives of intellectual property, customer relationships and brand names associated with the acquisition of these companies.

The amortisation lives used in the Financial Statements are:

Impart Special Products Pty Limited

Intellectual Property 5 years

Customer relationships 5 years

Brand Name 5 years

iv. Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group and have finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

v. Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

vi. Amortisation

Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use.

(g) Leases

Leases in terms of which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.

Other leases are operating leases and the leased assets are not recognised in the Group’s Statement of Financial Position. Costs incurred under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

(h) Inventories

Raw materials and stores, work in progress and finished goods are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour, and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on the basis of weighted average costs. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(i) Impairment

i. Non-derivative financial assets

A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.

Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy.

Loans and receivables

The Group considers evidence of impairment for trade and other receivables and other financial assets at both a specific asset and collective level. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment. All individually significant receivables found not to be specifically impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet identified. Receivables that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together receivables with similar risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment the Group uses historical trends of the probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgement as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical trends.

NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(i) Impairment (continued)

i. Non-derivative financial assets (continued)

Loans and receivables (continued)

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against receivables. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

ii. Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its related cash-generating unit (CGU) exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGU. Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, for the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment is tested reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. The Group’s corporate assets do not generate separate cash inflows and are utilised by more than one CGU. Corporate assets are allocated to CGUs on a reasonable and consistent basis and tested for impairment as part of the testing of the CGU to which the corporate asset is allocated.

Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (or group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (or group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

(j) Non-current assets and liabilities held for sale

Non-current assets and liabilities or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets, or components of a disposal group, are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Thereafter generally the assets, or disposal group, are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Any impairment loss on a disposal group first is allocated to goodwill, and then to remaining assets and liabilities. Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gains or losses on re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.

NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(k) Employee benefits

i. Defined contribution plans

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available. Contributions to a defined contribution plan that are due more than 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the service are discounted to their present value.

ii. Long service leave

Liabilities for long service leave are recognised as part of the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future salaries and wage levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service.

Expected future payments are discounted using national government bond rates at reporting date with terms of maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

iii. Wages and salaries and annual leave

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of reporting date are recognised in respect of employees’ services rendered up to reporting date and are measured at amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for wages and salaries are included as part of other payables and liabilities for annual leave are included as part of employee benefits provision.

iv. Bonus plans

The Group recognises an expense and a liability for bonuses when the entity is contractually obliged to make such payments or where there is past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

v. Employee performance option plan

The Group has an Employee Performance Option Plan (“EPOP”) available to assist in the attraction, retention, and motivation of employees, senior executives and Executive Directors of the Group. The EPOP is not available to the Non-Executive Directors of the Group. This plan has been approved with effect from 1 July 2008. No options have been granted to date.

(l) Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost.

(m) Revenue

A sale is recorded when the goods have been delivered to the customer which is when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of consideration is probable, associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing managerial involvement and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances, rebates, and amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

Revenue from services rendered is recognised in the profit or loss once the service has been rendered.

(n) Lease payments

Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease.

Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(o) Finance income and finance expenses

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested and foreign currency gains that are recognised in profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.

Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions, impairment losses recognised on financial assets, and foreign currency losses that are recognised in profit or loss. Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis as either finance income or finance cost depending on whether foreign currency movements are in a net gain or net loss position.

(p) Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and associates and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Additional income tax expenses that arise from the distribution of cash dividends are recognised at the same time that the liability to pay the related dividend is recognised. The Group does not distribute non-cash assets as dividends to its shareholders.

Tax consolidation

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities are part of a tax-consolidated group with effect from 29 April 2006. As a consequence, all members of the tax-consolidated group are taxed as a single entity. The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is Inventis Limited.

(q) Goods and services tax

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the Statement of Financial Position.

Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.

(r) Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale (refer Note 3(j)), if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income is re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

(s) Earnings per share

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(t) Segment reporting

The Group comprises the following main business segments:

� Furniture Division. The design, manufacture and sale of a range of commercial furniture, which includes office chairs, tables, lounges, and workstations.

� Technology Division. The design and manufacture of custom control and market ready electronic systems, mobile computing solutions and emergency vehicle control systems.

� Other operations discontinued during the 2008 financial year include the design, manufacture and sale of two-seater aircraft.

A corporate head office function provides the Group with finance, human resources and IT services, however this corporate function does not satisfy the requirements for disclosures as a reportable segment.

Information regarding the operations of each reportable segment is included in Note 6. Performance is measured based on segment profit before income tax. Segment profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of each segment. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis.

(u) Presentation of financial statements

A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2012, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Group are set out below. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early.

AASB 9: Financial Instruments (December 2010) and AASB 2010–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010) [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 101, 102, 108, 112, 118, 120, 121, 127, 128, 131, 132, 136, 137, 139, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 2, 5, 10, 12, 19 & 127] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).

These Standards are applicable retrospectively and include revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, as well as recognition and de-recognition requirements for financial instruments.

The key changes made to accounting requirements which may be relevant to Inventis Limited, include:

� simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;

� requiring financial assets to be reclassified where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based on: (a) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and (b) the characteristics of the contractual cash flows; and

� requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in its fair value due to changes in the entity’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income, except when that would create an accounting mismatch. If such a mismatch would be created or enlarged, the entity is required to present all changes in fair value (including the effects of changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.

NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(u) Presentation of financial statements (continued)

The objective of this Standard is to establish principles for the financial reporting of financial assets and financial liabilities that will present relevant and useful information to users of financial statements for their assessment of the amounts, timing and uncertainty of an entity’s future cash flows. Inventis Limited has already been presenting information about financial instruments in Note 1 (d) accounting policies applied on Financial Instruments, Note 5 Financial Risk Management and Note 25 Financial Instruements.

AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements, AASB 12: Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, AASB 127: Separate Financial Statements (August 2011), and AASB 2011–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint Arrangements Standards [AASB 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 2009–11, 101, 107, 112, 118, 121, 124, 132, 133, 136, 138, 139, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 5, 9, 16 & 17] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).

AASB 10 replaces parts of AASB 127: Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (March 2008, as amended) and Interpretation 112: Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. AASB 10 provides a revised definition of control and additional application guidance so that a single control model will apply to all investees. The Company has not yet determined the impact of AASB 10 on Inventis Limited’s financial statements for the financial year 2014.

AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement and AASB 2011–8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 13 [AASB 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 2009–11, 2010–7, 101, 102, 108, 110, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 128, 131, 132, 133, 134, 136, 138, 139, 140, 141, 1004, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 2, 4, 12, 13, 14, 17, 19, 131 & 132] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).

AASB 13 defines fair value, sets out in a single Standard a framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurement.

AASB 13 requires inputs to all fair value measurements to be categorised in accordance with a fair value hierarchy; and enhanced disclosures regarding all assets and liabilities (including, but not limited to, financial assets and financial liabilities) to be measured at fair value. The Company has not yet determined the impact of AASB 13 on Inventis Limited's financial statements for future periods.

AASB 119: Employee Benefits (September 2011) and AASB 2011–10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 119 (September 2011) [AASB 1, AASB 8, AASB 101, AASB 124, AASB 134, AASB 1049 & AASB 2011–8 and Interpretation 14] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).

These Standards introduce a number of changes to accounting and presentation of defined benefit plans.

AASB 119 (September 2011) also includes changes to the accounting for termination benefits that require an entity to recognise an obligation for such benefits at the earlier of:

� for an offer that may be withdrawn – when the employee accepts;

� for an offer that cannot be withdrawn – when the offer is communicated to affected employees; and

� where the termination is associated with a restructuring of activities under AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, and if earlier than the first two conditions – when the related restructuring costs are recognised.

The Company has not yet determined the impact of AASB 13 on Inventis Limited’s financial statements for future periods.

NOTE 4 DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the Notes specific to that asset or liability.

i. Land and buildings

The fair value of land and buildings is based on market values. The market value of property is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, and willingly.

ii. Intangible assets

The fair value of Identifiable Intangibles are based on the criteria set out in Note 18.

NOTE 4 DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES (continued)

iii. Inventories

The fair value of inventories is determined based on its estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and sale, and a reasonable profit margin based on the effort required to complete and sell the inventories.

iv. Trade and other receivables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided by the Group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 45 days of recognition. The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

v. Non-derivative financial liabilities

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. For finance leases the market rate of interest is determined by reference to similar lease agreements.

NOTE 5 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Overview

The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:

� credit risk

� liquidity risk

� market risk

� currency risk

� interest rate risk

This Note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, its objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and its management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Risk management framework

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board is responsible for developing and monitoring risk management policies. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.

The Board oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers.

The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. The Group does not require collateral in respect of financial assets.

Goods are sold subject to retention of title clauses, so that in the event of non-payment the Group may have a secured claim.

The Group does not require collateral in respect of trade and other receivables.

The Group holds Credit Risk insurance to limit the exposure to any customer and provide protection against bad debts.

The Group has established an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures, and a collective loss component established for groups of similar assets in respect of

Credit risk (continued)

losses that have been incurred but not yet identified. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for similar financial assets.

At the reporting date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the Statement of Financial Position.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

The Group maintains sufficient cash, and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities including invoice financing facilities totalling $4.7m of which $4.7m has been activated and as at the reporting date $2.3m, was used. The Group also has access to short term loan funding from a related party (refer Note 27(iii)).

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

The Group does not have a significant exposure to equity price risk.

The Group does not enter into derivatives. All market risk transactions are carried out within guidelines set by the Board.

Currency risk

The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, primarily the Australian dollar (AUD), but also the New Zealand dollar (NZD) and US dollar (USD). The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are AUD and NZD.

Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency.

The Group’s Technology Division both purchases and sells internationally in USD. International sales and purchases are operated through USD bank accounts. This provides a limited natural hedge against foreign exchange risk. The Group’s Furniture Division operates in the New Zealand market and thus has exposure to foreign exchange risk.

Interest rate risk

The Group’s fixed-rate borrowings are exposed to a risk of change in their fair value due to changes in interest rates. The Group’s variable-rate borrowings are exposed to a risk of change in cash flows due to changes in interest rates. Investments in short-term receivables and payables are not exposed to interest rate risk.

Exposure to credit, interest rate and currency risks arises in the normal course of the Group’s business.

Capital management

The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Board of Directors monitors the return on capital, which the Group defines as the result from operating activities divided by total shareholders’ equity.

There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.

Neither the Company nor the Group are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

NOTE 6 SEGMENT REPORTING (continued)

A corporate head office function provides the Group with finance, human resources and IT services, however this corporate function does not satisfy the requirements for disclosures as a reportable segment.

Information regarding the operations of each reportable segment is included below. Performance is measured based on segment profit before income tax. Segment profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of each segment. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis.

18. Intangible assets (continued) Amortisation and impairment charge The amortisation is allocated as an expense to Administration expense.

Any impairment loss is recognised through profit or loss and is allocated to Administration expenses for continuing operations.

Valuation of identifiable intangibles at acquisition (at fair value)

� Customer Relationships – This was valued on a discounted cash flow basis, taking into account future revenues and likely “churn” rates in customer turnover. The discount rate was based on a weighted average cost of capital for the Company;

� Intellectual Property – This was based on a discounted cash flow of future notional royalties. The royalty was assessed by reference to other comparable transactions and the discount rate takes into account risks and benefits associated with the Intellectual Property;

� Patents and Trademarks – These were also based on a notional royalty basis and were discounted using a weighted average cost of capital for the Company.

Impairment testing for cash-generating units containing goodwill

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the Group’s operating divisions which represent the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes, which is not higher than the Group’s operating segments reported in Note 6.

The aggregate carrying amounts of goodwill allocated to each unit are as follows:

For the following entities, the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit of each business was based on its value in use:-

� Gregory Commercial Furniture Pty Limited (“GCFAu”)

� Impart Special Products Pty Limited (“Impart”)

No impairment losses were incurred in the current or prior years.

Value in use was determined by discounting the future cash flows generated from the continuing use of the unit and was based on the following key assumptions:

2013 Value in use assumptions:

Cash flows were projected based on the Management approved forecasts for the financial year ending 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2015 cash flows for further 3 year period to 30 June 2018 were extrapolated using a constant growth rate.

2012 Value in use assumptions:

Cash flows were projected based on the Management approved forecast for the financial year ending 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2014 cash flows for further 4 year period to 30 June 2018 were extrapolated using a constant growth rate.

The values assigned to the key assumptions represent management’s assessment of future trends in the industry and are based on both external sources and internal sources (historical data). Management has performed sensitivity analysis of the value in use impairment models. Assuming other inputs remain constant, the minimum annual growth rates in revenue required over the period 2014-2018 are 4.4% for GCFAu and 3% for Impart at which the intangible assets and other assets are not impaired.

The above available amounts are based on the balance of the dividend franking account at year-end adjusted for:

(a) Franking credits that will arise from the payment of the current tax liabilities;

(b) Franking debits that will arise from the payment of dividends recognised as a liability at the year-end;

(c) Franking credits that will arise from the receipt of dividends recognised as receivables by the tax consolidated group at the year-end; and

(d) Franking credits that the entity may be prevented from distributing in subsequent years.

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments

The Group does not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value through the profit or loss. Therefore a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.

A change of 100 basis points in interest rates would not have increased or decreased the Group’s equity.

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments.

A change of 100 basis points on the interest rates charged would have increased / (decreased) the profit and loss by the amounts shown below which is also the net cash flow effect.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Inventis Limited

Report on the financial report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Inventis Limited (the company), which comprises the

consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2013, and consolidated statement of profit or loss

and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of

cash flows for the year ended on that date, notes 1 to 32 comprising a summary of significant accounting

policies and other explanatory information and the directors’ declaration of the Group comprising the

company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors’ responsibility for the financial report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and

fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such

internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that

is free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error. In note 2, the directors also state, in

accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the

financial statements of the Group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our

audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply

with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain

reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the

financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of

the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk

assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial report

that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,

but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An

audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of

accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial

report.

We performed the procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly,

in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards, a true and fair view

which is consistent with our understanding of the Group’s financial position and of its performance.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our

audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act

2001.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Inventis Limited (continued)

Basis of qualified opinion

As noted in Note 3 (b) and Note 7 of the financial report, the Les Bleus (formerly Alpha Aviation) Group of

companies (“Les Bleus”), being wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, were wound up during the

year after having been in voluntary liquidation and receivership. The Receiver did not provide to the

Company adequate accounting records to permit the application of appropriate audit procedures.

Accordingly, it was not possible to obtain all the information necessary to complete our audit procedures in

relation to Les Bleus relating to its performance and cash flows for the year ended 30 June 2013 or the

comparative period.

Had we been able to complete our audit procedures in relation to Les Bleus, matters might have come to our

attention indicating that adjustments might have been necessary to the 30 June 2013 consolidated financial

report including the comparatives.

Qualified Auditor’s opinion

In our opinion, except for the effects of adjustments to the financial report relating to Les Bleus, if any, as

might have been determined to be necessary had it not been for the limitation of scope to our audit

described in the preceding paragraph:

(a) the financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

(i) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2013 and of its

performance for the year ended on that date; and

(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

(b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in note

2.

Report on the Remuneration Report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in paragraph 5.4 of the directors’ report for the year

ended 30 June 2013. The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of

the remuneration report in accordance with Section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility

is to express an opinion on the remuneration report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with

auditing standards.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Inventis Limited (continued)

Qualified auditor’s opinion

In our opinion, except for the effects of adjustments to the Remuneration Report relating to Les Bleus, if

any, that might have been necessary had it not been for the limitation of scope to our audit described

above in relation to Les Bleus, the Remuneration Report of Inventis Limited for the year ended 30 June

2013, complies with Section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
